One of the strangest of tragedies
was that which occurred in tenement
house in New York on Sunday. Samuel
Leventhal, Russian Hebrew of forty.
nine years, who came to this country
four years ago, lost his wife and recently
married a young Jewess. The new wife
treated her two little step daughters
harshly, and Leventhal's eldest son,
Benjamin, youth of nineteen, resented
her conduct bitterly, fact which caused
trouble between his father and him.
The family occupied three rooms of the
tenement hive. On. Monday after a bit
ter quarrel the younger Leyenthal sud.
denly produced a bull dog revolver and
shot his father through the neck, cutting
the carotid artery, and then fred two
bullets into his own body. The two fell
on the floor together and died in about
fifteen minutes, embracing and caressipg
each other with evidences of the fondest
emotion.
On Wednesday the feight train on
the Columbia and GreenviIle Railroad
was composed of two sections. The first
section arrived at Chappells, a station
sixty.fve miles above Columbia, and
took the side track, and in doing this the
one whose duty it is failed to change the
switch bacl, to the main line. In a few
minutes the second section came rolling
up and, in consequence of the failure to
change the switch, plunged into the train
already on the side track, badly smashing
the conductors cab and breaking the
locomotive considerably. No one was
hurt as the engineer and fremen when
they saw collision inevitable jumped
from their engine and escaped injury
Columbia Register, March l9.
james P. Payne, of Piedmont, re-
ports to the agricultural department that
e disease exists among mules in his
section, which be believes to be gland
ers, and asks for the advice of the veler-
mary surgeon of the department. Thos.
Walsh, of Backville, reports that per.
sons in his neighborh ood having diseased
stock have not complied with the instruc'
ton of the veterinary surgeon, MIR.
McInnes, to destroy them. The law
authorizes the department to have such
stock destroyed if the owners fail to act
themselves, and it will be enforced
strictly.
Alex. Hariston, a negro, at Reid.
vile, N. c., knocked his wife down last
Friday because the meal was out. Then
seizing the woman's head with both
hands, he held it up and butted his own
against it until she was dead. DR.. Estes
removed the woman's skull and found a
portion of the brain black from the con.
cussion. The brute is in jail. 1t was
sworn at the trial that Harlston was IN
the habit of giving his buttipg exIlbl-
tions for drink and amusement, anu ne
had been known to split three lnch

Port Royal to be Doomed.

PORT ROYAL, S. O., March 18.-A ru-
NOR having reached your correspondent
that the dull town of Port Royal was to
be the seat of great railway deal, and
sufficient corroborative information hav.
ing been had, am here and have, in the
short time at my command, CLEANED all
information that could possibly be
secured. Just before dark to-day, spe-
cial engine, by orders of Mr.. William M.
Rodgers, assistant to President Alexan.
der Of the Central railroad, was forwarded
here, This is the state of affairs as I find
them. -. .Fs
It is not rumored, but is a positive fact
that w. K. Vanderbilt will be in Port
Royal to. morrow, and there are number
of facts connected Herewith that cause
much speculation and rumor as to the
object of the visit of this great million:
aire. He will arrive on3his yacht, and
will inspect the greatness and innumera-
BILE advantages of this wonderful harbor.
Several days ago, Mr.. Appleton, ofNew
York, who owns large amount of prop.
erty at Port Royal, instructed his agent
by wire not sell dollars worth of prop.
erty and to withdraw all property under
offer for sale. Property at Port Royal,
which for several years has been on q
decline, has in the past few weeks
increased much in value, and knowing.
ones begin to believe that the dream Of
their lives is to about to be realized, and
the great Port Royal is to become a
aourishing and prosperous city, with
ber port filled with vessels from all parts
of the globe.
There is large amount of mail and q
number of kilograms awaiting Mr.. Van.
derbilt at Port Royal. Yesterday Mr..
VIM. Rogers, assistant to the President
of the Central railroad, issued instruc.
tions to transport the millionaire's car
hither free, and has ordered an engine 10
Port Royal to await his pleasure. A
number of constructions are put tupon the
visit of the millionaire to the great but
bottled up port. Mr.. Hollins, the Vice
President of the Central road, and the
mau who (it has been supposed) was the
power behind the throne, it is known, is
the broker of Vanderbilt, and by many
it is believed that they have appreciated
the greatness of the harbOr of Port Royal
and propose to utilize it.
1t is believed by many that Hollins,
who is now figuring so conspicuously, is
no other than the representative of the
great railroad king. While the news
that the Central will doubtless be coz
trolled by Vanderbilt, and Port Royal
made the harbor Of the South, may be
distasteful to Savannah, still the rumor
has semblance of much truth.
There has been, for long time since,
quiet buying of lands and lots in and
about this place, and in view of the
present developments Port Royal lot
owners will freeze to what they have.
The movements of the millionaire king
and his party will be watched with great
interest," augusta Chronicle.

tcasts turned chiefly upon the necessity
Of limiting the production, 30 as not to
give too severe shock to the commercial
world
For three weeks Wachtmeister now La
bored steadily in 8. dingy little laboratory
which he had inprovised in an empty
back room in the Hardness block. He
delivered to the millionaire from time to
time small bars Of gold which the assay
proved to be genuine; but he complained
greatly at being obliged to work under
such disadvantages, with imperfect light,
and no facilities for extended production.
He dined almost daily with Harkness,
who, as he came to know him, was more
and more dazzled by his brilliant talk,
scientific requirements, and inexhaustible
fund Of anecdotes.
'sYou be on the look out, doctor" he
said to him one evening as they sat sip
ping their Chartreuse and smoking high
Favored Havanas; eff you see anything
that'n suit you for 8 laboratory, you just
let me know and I'll plank down the
cash.,
The Teuton betrayed no emotion at this
proposal; but about q week later, when
there was tremendous excitement on
'change at the revelation Of corner In
Harkness's favorite stock, he rushed
breathlessly into the latter's Office with q
COPY Of The Alta in his hand.
s.Look here" he cried; ''here is the
very thing we want: For sale-The
property of G. L. Perkins, Esq, at Oak
land.' I've just been out there, and Sol
omon Sayles has got the refusal OF 1t at
$4,000. They are about to close the
bargain. Now, if we can offer $45, 1000
cash it's ours. It is dirt cheap, but Per-
kins has got squeezed on change and
can't raise money in any other way for
margins. He has got to have the cash by
2 O'Clock. Now, If you'll run out there
with mel
ssI run out there-are you cracked,
mani" roared the millionaire. "Don't
you know that there's something very
much like panic on 'change9"
"Why, no, I hadn't heard Of it. Well,
then, send out some agent Of yours with
your check for $45, 900 or the right to draw
on you for that amount.
siThe deucel I hain't got no time to
bother"
He scratched his head angrily, then
drew check for the required amount and
handed it to Wachtmeister. "You run
out and settle the thing yourself" he
said. ''I know the property. 1t is worth
the money. Iknow, too, that Perkins is
in tight place. You'd better hurry"
''But couldn't you send Lawson along
with mem
"You just clear out Do you suppose
can spare. Lawson on q day like thisS'
Gail right. You'll hear from me to-
morrow"
Wachtmeister folded the check, put it
into his pocketbook and rushed out as
breathlessly as he had come. 1t was the
last time Mr.. Hardness had the pleasure
